UEFA Super Cup: How the last 10 winners have fared

Real Madrid take on Manchester United on Tuesday night in the UEFA Super Cup Final at the Philip II Arena Stadium in Skopje, in what should be a superb spectacle.

These two European giants have remarkably never faced each other in this competition before.

In a game of intriguing renewals, Cristiano Ronaldo returns just in time to play his old team, while Jose Mourinho will also face his former employers.

It’s not exactly the most prestigious of European trophies, but these two super clubs are serial winners and will likely want to get their season off to a winning start.

How have the Super Cup winners fared at the end of each campaign, though? We analyse the trends of the last ten years to see if there’s any prevailing patterns.
